The Champions Down the Arkan-
saS City Chicago Team
And Widen the gap Between Them
and the Winners Of our
Winning Wichita.

The second game of the state championship
series between the Wichita and Arkansas
City clubs resulted in victory for the home
| team by score of 10 to 5. The game
throughout was very exciting, and the feel
ing was wrought up to high pitch by the
| manner in which the visitors jumped on the
umpire several times and threatened to quit
| the grounds several times for no valid ex
| cuse.
The playing of the champions was some
thing like base ball as they have played il
heretofore. The visitors could not rally
from their moralization, although they
tried vigorously to make another accidental
squirt like the one of yester
day, but it fell fiat On the con
trary, they played as bad if not worse ball
than on Monday. Wiley's curves were too
much for them, and only O'Rourke, Hunter
and Miller could hit him safely. He struck
out to for Noll, the visitors pitcher, who
was hit hard by everybody. All made safe
hits except Wiley and Whistler, who had
his finger nail torn off and let one ball drop
at first Oh third man out, letting in the first
two runs for Arkansas City. He then
changed places with Haber, who played a
good first, and put out fifteen men without
an error except an excusable tumble OF
hot grounder. Whistler, in right field, made
difficult running catch. On the first in
n ing Scharringbausen got at third and the
visitors got in the two Oh Whistler's unfor-
tunate error. On second Schulze got base
on balls, Drommond on an error of Long
Schulze scored on Triffin's hit. The visitors
went out in one, two, three order
The third inning was the great
one for Wichita. Rose led off
with a clean hit over short. Hemp got a
base on balls Scharringhausen got first on
an error, and let Rose and Hemp in as the
other side got to throwing wildly. Whistler
struck out Haber and Drummond: each got
first on bad error. Griffin hit safe, bringing
in Haber and Drummond got home on the
wretched work of the other nine. Schulze
and Wiley got out at first, making the score
six to two in favor of the champions, which
was not changed until their half Of the next
inning when Rose got to first on an error
Hemp got a base on balls and both came
b ONE on Schulzes safe hit. Arkansas City
got nothing in the fourth, Wichita nothing
in the fifth, and when the boys from the
Border Town" started into their half of the
fifth the score stood eight to two, the same as
it did the day before when they made their
squirt for ten runs. But they lacked the
good luck they had then and the home team
played ball, too. Noll was hit by the ball
and came in on Miller's three-bagger. Mil
Ter scored ON Hunters three-base hit, but the
latter could not get in before two more men
were put out. and the score stood eight to
four.
Neither did anything in the sixth, although
some good hits were made by the boys In
the seventh Haber and Drummond scored,
making ten, and O'Rourke got in the fifth
one for Arkansas City. No more runs were
made.
The following is the detailed score of the
game:

A BLAZE.

Last evening a gasoline stove in the De-
troit restaurant, on East Douglas avenue,
came to the front in hurry, and for a few
minutes entertained in fine shape quite a
good sized crowd.
The reservoir of the stove leaked, and the
oil had run over the stove. The cook, una
ware Of this, lit match near by. No sooner
had he done so than the flames shot
up along the partition, burning
off the paint and igniting the netting above.
Soon the end of the room was in flames and
the smoke rolled towards the ceiling in
clouds Crowds of people rushed in and by
their prompt measures extinguishedthe blaze
before much greater damage had been done

Meeting Of the Pioneers.

1t il generally understood and ex-
pected that IT, are is TO be meeting OF
the Pioneers Association of Montana
during Fair week, and that is close at
hand. As yet there has been no an
nouncement Of any programme for
the occasion. 1t was expected that
the president, Hon. Granville stuart,
would be here before this time and
call together the officers and commits
tee-men and get things In readiness so
that notices could be sent out. Last
wear IL was voted that members should
pay So a year and that this money
should be used for the general purposes
of the association, the principle one
being to provide banquet, where the
old timers,could meet and enjoy them
Sc Ives around the table, telling stories
and listening to the toasts, speeches
and songs. But II takes some time as
well as labor and money to get up
such a banquet. Last year the banquet
was paid for by subscriptions, but 1t
was intended afterwards that IL should
be paid for from the funds Of the asso-
citation derived from membership
dues. But so far not more than q
dozen members have paid their 81,
and 1t looks as II very slim banquet
could be gotten up with what is now
on hand. II this thing were once got
into working order, we feel pretty
sure that 1t would be the source OF
great and growing interest IL 1t fails
this year after having had such good
start last year, 1t will be harder than
ever to revive IL again. We all know
that everybody is busy during Farir
week, ard 1t is therefore necessary 10
make provisionf In advance both for
supplies and hely.
We propose that q meeting be called
J this week by the local officers and the
